Nope. The RIR-police will shut you down.
Just kidding. I'm in ARIN's region and have a customer in Africa for
whom we're announcing AFRINIC space. It happens. As long as you have
authorization from the registrant (I'd say owner, but the RIR-semantics
police would come for me) of the space, I wouldn't worry about utilizing
"out of region" numbering resources.
This sort of thing probably happens quite a bit more than you'd
guess...both legitmately and not.
